Being Without Self is an international group of Zen practitioners. Committed to awakening, we are grounded in an authentic Zen Buddhist tradition rooted in the present. The bond that unites us is our practice together, guided by Jeff Shore, lay successor to Rinzai Zen master Keidō Fukushima. We offer opportunities for sustained practice through: Zen meditation retreats worldwide, the hermitage in Kyoto, one-on-one guidance, and mutual support. Open to learning from and practicing with others, you are welcome to join us.
